When Bajakian and McConnell Rocked the Red Rocks

Updated by Remi

A nice little video was posted to Bluesky today by Nicolas “Author of The Mysteries of Monkey Island” Deneschau:

Juste une vidéo de Clint Bajakian et Peter McConnell jouant le thème de Monkey Island devant absolument personne. De rien.

It is what looks like a rehearsal for Video Games Live 2015, which took place in Red Rocks, Colorado. And yes, that is Peter McConnell on guitar and Clint Bajakian on bass – both instruments they might not be mainly known for. (Bajakian more often plays the guitar; McConnell the electric violin.) The ditty is, of course, the Monkey Island theme.

Here’s the video for those who pass on Bluesky.
